El Nino · 10-03-12, 04:07 AM

Last Vegas trip I had strangers coming up to me showing me how good their 6 and 7 team parlays were looking, if only that 1 game didn't fukk them! I guess I look nice? I just nod politely and resist the urge to lecture them.

It's funny, I will occasionally bet a tiny amount on like a 6 or 7 team parlay just for the fun of it, and they alway seems to lose by just 1 match. Even though I don't rally expect to win the bet and it's just for fun, the fact that it loses by just 1 is soooo frustrating. Would rather like 5 of the games lose so I didn't feel like I almost won it. Seems to be this way for everyone -- always just that one match that screws the whole thing up.

gabe · 10-03-12, 12:54 PM

I've hit so many 6-8 teamers that I lost count a long time ago.

I've posted a lot of them on here.

I think Raonic -350 is a lock. Nishikori -320 is as good as a lock, too.

Yeah, I'd try to explain the math of how they are not profitable long term...but I know better!

They're not, if you're the average person, but they are if you're me. Most people rarely hit them, if ever, whereas I hit them regularly. I would have easily hit a couple 6 team MMA parlays this past weekend, but my current books don't allow MMA parlays. Need to find one that does.

NunyaBidness · 10-03-12, 03:44 PM

If you're getting true prices on large parlays they aren't any less profitable than straight plays, but your variance shoots through the roof, which isn't ideal if you're trying to sustain growth. And when you start hedging the plays you reduce your price.

This isn't just a hobby for me, it's a skill. I wouldn't waste my time (and money) if I wasn't doing so well at it. You guys have a "bankroll" you play with, like a hobby. For me, it's my bread and butter. Until I get something else going, anyway.

whether its a hobby and whether you are skilled at it are not mutually exclusive.

bjpenn85 · 10-03-12, 04:32 PM

I trust gabes parlay skill way more than luca fury for instance.btw i hope that luca fury includes wager size in units this time around. Maybe right now, luca furys mma podcast contain a huge wagered bet in units that he later will claim was boutght back on the live betting section sunday morning.

No shit, sherlock. That's why I said it's not JUST a hobby... for me, it's both. I believe it is something I'm good at. Over and over and over again, for 4 years now, I have steadily profited...

V laughs his ass off, meanwhile I continue to be on the right side of plays he is on the losing side of... and I keep saying this over and over again all the time, because it keeps continuing to be true... Keep laughing, V. This statement was true when I first said it, and it's true today. (last time being the zaromskis fight)

Vaughany · 10-03-12, 04:38 PM

Im laughin with you not at you cuz...thought we were homies son

i misinterpreted what you meant as "This isn't just a hobby for me, it's a skill."

I figured that's what he meant as well? "Just" kind of singles something out doesnt it?

Also saying... "You guys have a "bankroll" you play with, like a hobby." That also suggests to me that Gabe is implying that unlike him we treat it as a hobby, no? Or maybe it's just us being dumb, real dumb!

correct, that statement also made it seem like he was saying "this isnt a hobby for me".
